The leaves of this pretty Epipremnum are remarkable not only for the distinctive slits they develop as they mature, but also for their blue-green color. As a climbing plant, it requires climbing aids, but beyond that, it is not complicated to care for, which, in addition to its decorative appearance, makes it as popular with beginners as it is with accomplished plant collectors.

- Location/Light Requirements: partial shade to light, avoid direct sunlight.
- Substrate: Ben's Philodendron & Monstera Soil, special soil

- Watering: keep substrate moist and water when the top layer of substrate begins to dry, using lukewarm water with little lime, but avoid waterlogging. Water less in winter.
- Humidity: needs relatively high humidity, spray regularly (but leaves should be allowed to dry afterwards!).
